one more thing bruh how is the call clarity and active noise cancellation
It does NOT have active noise cancellation. But the passive noise cancellation is pretty awesome. If you have the earphone fully inserted in your ear and volume set to about 50% in a noisy traffic or environment, you can hardly hear any other thing but the music or audio you are listening to.

Call clarity is dependent on how the earphone is inserted. You will get a hang of it once you start using it to know how to insert it to make for a clearer call quality. In all, I give the call clarity a 6/10 pass mark.

Hmmm, are you sure of his inverter Voc?
Has he stated it before, guess i missed it.

Most common hybrid inverters have Voc of 150v, if so 4s2p on 270w panels will fry it. Best he buys 1 more panel to make it 9 and then do 3s3p

Abi his hybrid is the high voltage types that can take upto 450v, if so.. then line it up 8s1p
This is correct. An "expert" nearly fried an inverter this way when the connection was 4s 3p (250w @ 38VoC) for 12 PVs instead of 3s 4p. Most Chinese hybrid inverter have 150v as their max input voltage; especially for capacity not higher than 5kvA

tell me more about that spunky beats
how is the bass
Bass is well balanced. Just get ready for a very annoying touch feature. Apart from the touch, I would've rated it 8/10. But because of the touch issue (too sensitive and sometimes downright unreliable) I rate it 6/10. But the bass and music production is 8/10 for me. You will really love the sound production, just use your phone to control it to avoid frustration as the touch feature is not reliable.

Definitely that's the picture but the pricing on that seller page makes it doubtful reach out to that seller to get Actual price of 1.7k+usd. Bought directly from manufacturers through a friend that is based there, I can't come and joke with 5 years warranty, which was one of the motivations for getting 8kw. Shipping cost was capable of buying me another MPP GK grin

To be specific N78,101 from that was over 23k which they termed brokerage fee. UPS are effective thieves. However I used FedEx to ship my MPP and just paid about 10k yes FedEx was just about 12kg, it still does not justify almost x8 of charges when doing 36kg via UPS
How much did UPS charge to ship the inverter? Was it this Deye inverter that you bought?

I have paid them jare my brother, now waiting patiently for them to deliver the package. Thanks for the info on US cargo.
You've paid the 80k? This is daylight robbery. This is the place it is best to use a trusted shipper. But I guess trust and shipper do not appear to coexist these days cry

Our leaders are not planning for the future. While other countries are preparing for the future, they are busy scheming on how to win elections and cart away as many dollars as they can before the said election. For now my ₦520 is a conservative estimate as we may be looking at ₦600 cool

Bro, it's better you look for anyone that has it already in naija and buy from.
AliExpress is complete rubbish and a semi scam for now
I wouldn't say that AliExpress is a scam. Not after more than 400+ orders that gets delivered with zero missing. You can only blame the poor quality of goods bought or fake listing of product's features which you can avoid if you do a lot of research and read as much reviews as you can from people who ordered same products.

The truth is to check reviews on AliExpress (watch out for products with only 5 star reviews as they may be fake. Also seeing a hundred five star reviews, all worded the same way, on same date is suspect also) Amazon, eBay, YouTube and online forums before buying any product. I do a lot of this research before I buy. I've bought items ranging from $2 to $600 which all gets delivered. If goods are lost in transit, you can't blame AliExpress for that as that is on the logistics. I've gotten refund too when goods never gets delivered. Also no negative experience from NIPOST after all these years of purchase from AliExpress. I hear stories of goods arriving in Nigeria and lost in NIPOST, so far I haven't experienced such.

Shezen basen.
550 is inclusive or clearing, yeah, its a bit high, but with the added alibaba protection of shipping, thats why am considering it.

All these naija china shippers, if anything happens to your cargo.. OYO, nuthing for you.
Last month over 350 containers fell into the north sea ... During to a terrific storm that blew them off 2 ships, 1 week apart.
Am sure if it was nigeria bound cargo.. compensation might not be paid to small importer s like us with 1 or 2 cbm.
All the trusted alibaba lifepo4 s3llers i know/contacted dont ship to nigeria directly

Yeah, have researched throughly, the lishen is as good as Eve.

My major headache is the exchange rate, i would have considered going solo and buying up the 64 cells to resell at hansome profit grin, but what if dollar crashes back to 360 from the present 475? In april or may when the cells arrive, my profit wont be so hansome again..considering the huge funds tied down grin

Then lifepo4 cell prices are projected to go up afyer the CNY holidays, Eve major sellers has even released official statement that new model eve cells will be sold for 110usd early this yr
I don't see naira to dollar going to ₦360. Not when our people are busy "borrowing" money from pension fund to make present day payment. So go ahead and do your thing. You'll be surprised naira to dollar then will be ₦520 grin

So after a lot of back and forth,
Am back to this lifepo4 group buy matter.

Due to less than stellar performance from several china shippers, i have tried.
Am considering the safer option of the alibaba seller handling the shipping.
He says his minimum cargo is 1cbm which is 64 pieces of Lishen 3.2v 272ah batts, cost about $550 customs and all inclusive, and pick up in their lagos warehouse. I only need 32 pieces, hence looking for possible buyers of the other 32 cells.

Each cell is about $80, and shipping duration is 3 to 4 months angry

The chinese new yr holidays is coming, commercial activities in china will grind to a halt from early feb and pick up again early march
The CBM rate is high at $550. But it's all good if it comes with buyer protection. Some Nigerian shipper can ship for less but with ZERO buyer protection. Lishen, EVE are all the same, especially as most of them are grade B cells (grade A sells for around $195 per cell, but the truth is there is no sure way to verify if it is grade A or just packaged grade B unless you are in China and was able to visit the company). But their capacity (272 or 280) is never in doubt. What is the name of this store at Alibaba?

I'm also currently using one. my touch controls do not disturb me sha, but I'm quite skeptical about the sound. I don't know if it's just my unit, or are the flats often more pronounced than the base in yours? or could it be because of how I position it in my ear. (I don't put it that deep inside my ear).

plus the battery life of my left ear piece gets drained faster compared to the right. Do u experience this too?
Treble is clear and crisp, midrange is fine, and bass is amazing.

My sound is balanced between mids and highs. Bass is also awesome. Have you considered changing the tips to see if it's a fit issue? Also my battery life is balanced between the earbuds.

Currently using one. Sound quality is super awesome. But touch control is wacky. If you can live with the erratic touch control, then you are in for some good sound.

I tried Alibaba, and those sellers respond so fast but their freight fee no be here ooo. It's $105 for two Poco X3 and they were very ready to split payments into several cards. Seems it takes fifteen days for them ship down I guess that's why it's that expensive.

I wish AliExpress sellers respond as fast as possible like that
You can use shippers (Chrisvicmall, Nonnikings, please do due diligence) or keep checking other sellers, but I doubt if any of the sellers can do it for less than $70 (for FedEx or DHL) especially given that it is two phones you are shipping.

I just noticed that GTB rate has gone high to 415.
I made an order of something 20.47$ and was debited 8,495.05.
That's on a high side oo and I was making my calculations based on 395 as usual.

I've used spunky beats and onyx neo and both of them have control issues... But mpow's control is accurate... And this is my 2nd Mpow
Spunky control is just so erratic. In terms of sound quality production, which of the two (Spunky vs Mpow) do you prefer?
